Comment: Mr. Aoud is an Arab Gulf states exclusive
Mr. Aoud is an unremarkably soft oud creation, with a paradoxical feminine sweetness.
With a brisk citrus opening, the spices quickly meld with the florals. This stage is rather uplifting, yet one soon foresees a bland woody-oriental base on the horizon. Possessing a sweet resinous underlining, the oud is also surprisingly discreet.
All in all, it's a reasonable effort but that's not really saying much. Lasting power is below average.
